Hi,
That's what I tried first. But if I do so (not using minOccurs="0"), I'm getting an
Exception while marshalling to the XML file, as this file doesn't contain that element
at the beginning.
You mentioned there's a difference referring to the creation of castor data objects if
you use minOccurs="0" or minOccurs="1" in the XSD file. That's the point which I can't
verify. In my generated class I still only have the instance variable of my child
class which of course is being used in the setter and getter but I can't figure out
where an instance of this child class should be created.
Thanks,
